The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence

The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence discusses the need for ethics accompanying developments in artificial intelligence, from the point of view of different disciplinary fields and sectors of activity. Artificial intelligence is profoundly restructuring our practices, creating new methods and significantly influencing the way we think and interact, at the level of individuals, organizations and societies, whether in our private, public or professional lives. This book begins with a rather conceptual approach, particularly focusing on the possible future of AI. It then highlights the urgent need to establish an ethical framework for the uses associated with AI, illustrating two booming sectors of activity. Finally, it discusses the ethics of AI in professional sectors that are undergoing major changes because of the digitization of their activities.
